Uhuru, ‘rebel’ in State House cleaning our rot

Kenya’s founding president Jomo Kenyatta once said: “Many people may think that; now there is uhuru, now I can see the sun of freedom shining, richness will pour down like manna from heaven. I tell you, there will be nothing from heaven. We must all work hard, with our hands, to save ourselves from poverty, ignorance, and disease.”

Jomo Kenyatta and the other heroes of independence rebelled against foreign colonial rule. A lot of them rebelled and paid the ultimate sacrifice so we can be free.
